Vehicle Search Best Practices

Introduction

Today, we’re talking about how to search for vehicles on Manheim.com. There are a few different ways to search, and each method helps narrow down results based on:

• Vehicle Type
• Sale Type
• General Location

Let’s go step by step on how to maximize your search.

Step 1: Searching by Vehicle Type

The easiest way to find the most results is by selecting “Find Vehicles” on Manheim.com.

1. Click Find Vehicles
2. Instead of entering criteria, click “Show All Vehicles” to display all available listings.

At this point, we have nearly 170,000 vehicles in the search results. This approach ensures that we don’t miss a vehicle simply because it was listed in the wrong sale or channel.

Step 2: Refining Your Search

Now, let’s refine the search based on specific criteria:

Example: Looking for a Late-Model Honda Accord

1. Select Honda from the vehicle make list.
2. Choose Accord Sedan from the model options.
3. Narrow it further by selecting 2.0 Turbo Sport trim.

After applying these filters, the results shrink from 170,000 vehicles to just 24 vehicles, considering:

• Auctions
• Dealership listings
• Every possible sales channel

Now, you can focus on finding the right vehicle based on factors like location, condition, and quality.

Step 3: Managing Your Search Results

Once you’ve found a vehicle you’re interested in, here’s what you can do:

1. Add Notes to Vehicles

• If a vehicle is listed in Manheim Pennsylvania, you can add a note.
• Example: “I don’t want to pay more than $29,000 (based on MMR).”

2. Save Your Search

• Why? So you don’t have to redo the same search every time you visit the site.
• How? Give the search a name and enable notifications.

This way, when new vehicles matching your criteria get listed, you’ll receive an alert—regardless of the sales channel.

Conclusion

By following these steps, you:
✔ Maximize search results.
✔ Save time on manual searches.
✔ Stay updated on new listings automatically.

Now, you can focus more on vehicle selection and business management rather than repeating the same search process.

Happy searching on Manheim Digital Marketplace!
